Hearing that the little girl was coughing constantly, it was probably pneumonia, grandma's. Without antibiotics, this disease would be fatal. I didn't know how many days the child had been sick. Yun Zheng used his hand to touch her forehead and found that it was very hot.
, he himself began to feel anxious.
Without talking nonsense to Lai Baduo, he drove the bullock cart all the way down the hillside. Lao Niu seemed to know that Yun Zheng was in a hurry today, so he walked very quickly on his four legs and arrived at the market in a short while.
First, he put the child in Huichun Hall and told the doctor to treat the child first, and he would pay for the pig after selling it. Mr. Wen, the doctor of Huichun Hall, waved his hand and asked Yun Zheng to go to work first, and also left a message to keep the pig ears.
Give him a drink.
People were coming and going in the market, all carrying baskets on their backs to exchange goods. It was completely impossible to finish buying a pig like this quickly. Seeing that the market was about to disperse, Yun Zheng gritted his teeth and hurried on
The oxcart arrived at the stall of Xiliansheng Silk and Satin Village. This is the largest merchant in Doushaguan. During the fair on the 15th day of the lunar month, their family will bring the leftover silk and satin scraps here to sell, and the people in the mountains will buy them back.
Most of them were embroidered into brocade handkerchiefs and then sold to Xi Liansheng. I heard that the shopkeeper was a good person, so Yun Zheng decided to try his luck.
A wild boar in Nuoda immediately attracted many onlookers, who were amazed. Yun Zheng frequently appeared in the market during this period. Everyone here knew him. In order to increase his presence, Yun Zheng went out of his way to talk to everyone.
Say hello, that's how people are. As long as they are familiar with each other, they won't care too much about when you show up. Yun Zheng has made a lot of efforts to erase the blanks in his life experience.
"Yunda, what a big pig. Where did you get it? Could it be that your kid caught it? This is impossible."
"You don't care where I came from. I'll keep the intestines and go to my house in the evening. We'll boil some water and eat it. Remember to bring rice wine. I've been wanting to drink the rice wine made by grandma."
The butcher was never a good person. He patted the wild boar on the cart and frowned and said, "Eight hundred coins, I'll leave it to you in the water, and the pig's head is mine. Hurry up, or I'll leave." This bastard saw Yun Zheng hugging him.
I took the child into Huichun Hall, knowing that he was in a hurry to ask for money.
"Your brother is sick. I made the offer just to see how pitiful you two are. I'm waiting for the money, right? The eight hundred coins are just in the bag. If you want to sell them, hurry up. The market is closed and there's no time to sell them piecemeal."
"Zhang Tu, if the price of this pig sold at Douchuan tomorrow is less than Guanwu, I will cut off the head and sell it to you as a pig head. This is a bad idea." The lame man selling bamboo baskets was furious and helped Yun Zheng beside him.
.
"Get out of here, lame or not, you are going to heaven. I will give you 800 yuan today, whether you like it or not." Zhang Tu made the lame so angry that he couldn't even utter a word.
"Uncle Hua, don't be angry. I won't sell it today. I will give this pig to Mr. Wen to pay for the medicine. Anyway, this disease will not be cured in a day or two. I just don't want to bother Mr. Wen all the time. He
The old man always donates medicine and needs money to buy medicinal materials, so he is going to buy a pig." Yun Zheng helped the lame man collect the scattered bamboo baskets together and comforted the lame man.
"Okay, it's always money. I only have so much money today, but give me the whole pig." Zhang Tu quickly intervened when he saw that things were not going well.
"Uncle Zhang, your pig-killing skills are second to none in our Dousha Town. I heard that it is a skill passed down from ancestors. You can tell how much pork a pig can kill at a glance. Please give me a real price for this pig.
It's not mine, and the pig's ears and pig's ears have already been promised to Mr. Wen and Shuishui. I'm a man who cares about face. I'd rather die than tell lies if you raise the price again."
Hearing Yun Zheng's compliment, Zhang Tu saved some face. He touched his chin and nodded, saying, "This pig is really good. It has at least five fat fingers. Even if its skin is thicker, it won't be easy for you to carry your little brother. I'll tell you later."
I'll start to untie the pig, give you the ears and sewer, and give the rest to me, and I'll give you a double. This is because you need money urgently. I can only get this money now, and I don't mean to take advantage of your doll."
Yunzheng quickly clasped his fists and thanked him: "Zhang Shurenyi, I understand. This pig belongs to you. It is Guan Er. I only take the ears and the water. The rest is yours."
Zhang Tu chuckled, and he and Yun Zheng drove the ox cart to the meat rack. Two guys came over to help hang the pigs on the rack. Now we have to do it. The wild boar skin is not available, so we need to get it.
Peel it off with a knife, which eliminates the need to scald it with boiling water. Then the pig skin can be tanned and sold to a tanner to make leather armor.
Just when I was about to use the knife, I heard a crisp voice coming over. My lady said that we want this pig for two bucks. "A little girl in a green coat was standing on the road holding a handkerchief and stretching her neck towards this place.
While watching.
Zhang Tu's face suddenly darkened. He was obviously someone who came to steal business. But when he saw the green oil cart pulled by a mule, he knew it was from a wealthy family and he couldn't steal it.
Yun Zheng didn't even look at the little maid. He was excitedly preparing to watch the butcher kill the pig. Seeing that the butcher made no move, he couldn't help but urge: "Uncle Zhang, you should do it. I'm waiting to see your ancestral craftsmanship."
Zhang Tu was stunned for a moment and pointed at the little maid. Yun Zheng said impatiently: "The Master said, don't look at anything inappropriate. Our business has been completed. At this time, I just want to watch you kill the pig. I am not interested in anything else."
"You, Uncle Zhang, can't afford to pay for someone else's trouble." Zhang Tu continued to laugh and joke with Yun Zheng.
"It's too late for eighty strings. If I want to buy it, I'll buy it from you. If you're a kid, you're farting. I'm waiting to get the ears and water from the pig. Take mine and sell the rest to her."
Hearing what Yun Zheng said was vulgar, the little maid glared at Yun Zheng bitterly, shook her handkerchief in shame and returned to the mule cart. The driver shouted, and the cart swayed towards Douchuan.
.
Zhang Tu smiled and pointed at Yun Zheng with his thumb, turned around and started to deal with the pig. His skills were really good. In a short time, the whole pig was cut into several pieces. The man turned the intestines and belly of the pig.
Clean it, rub it carefully with rice flour, and then give it to Yun Zheng.
Yunzheng carried a sack of copper on his back, pig ears in his hand, and a large basin of sewer on the bullock cart. He said goodbye to Zhang Tu and then returned to the Huichun Hall.
"Why did the child under my care come here with such a fever? I just gave him an injection to relieve the anger. Remember not to break the wet cloth on the head. Then I drank this patch of medicine for three days in a row. I survived."
It will be fine for these three days."
Mr. Wen's words made Yun Zheng's eyes go straight. This is not true. What does it mean that it will be fine after three days? In his own time, if that doctor dared to say that, he would have had sulfuric acid thrown at him.
fate.
Yun Zheng looked at Mr. Wen's sincere face and could only bow to express his thanks, presented him with a pair of pig ears, cleared the cost of the medicine, and asked Mr. Wen's son to grab an extra pair of heart-clearing and lung-clearing medicine.
He carried the sleeping little girl to the bullock cart. Seeing that it was almost noon, he hurriedly drove the bullock cart back.
